About the DEI, um, why would you want to hire staff that didn't think diversity, equity or inclusivity was a good ideal?

And the Andrew Gillen piece cited by AEI was crap. It basically boiled to "it looks like the more leftists dominate a particular subject the less it pays but there's no evidence of causation but I'm going to keep going like there's causation anyway!"

It was full of "could bes", "maybes" and "likelys" with no actual evidence proffered. It was a typical right-wing attack in higher education with no substance.

Oh, and there was no corroboration that nearly 700 of the 900 applicants for 1 life-sciences position were rejected solely due to their response to the DEI. It was just "some guy said this thing" and he went with it like it is actually true.

I really do expect better, but you do have a bit of hobbyhorse about this wokeism stuff.
